00:00
Thank you, Tammy. I actually have a follow-up on that. So those were the demands that
00:05
U.S. basically sent to the Syrian interim authorities, and then they sent back in writing
00:11
a response saying we have done some of these things and then we're working on other things.
00:16
So what is the U.S. assessment at the moment on Syrian interim authorities' progress?
00:23
Yes. Because they want a clear roadmap for permanent sanctions relief. Was that somehow
00:33
discussed in that meeting, and did you guys give them a clear timeline on when that would happen?
00:39
Obviously, I can't tell you that, but you've got to ask. I understand that.
00:43
Look, I think we can all determine what the framework is and if it has been met when there's
00:49
action. So it's – I don't want to – I can't say what I was just going to say.
00:58
Because it was – no, I know I could, but I won't. I shouldn't. So there's things you can do,
01:02
and then there's things you should do. So it does sound like the U.S. is not
01:05
that satisfied with what they've done. No, do not draw conclusions,
01:10
which sometimes people tend to do. My point is, is that if you're wondering when our
01:16
requirements of which I've detailed – some of – are met, you will see action from this
01:22
government. If there is no action from this government, I – we would – we would have
01:28
to presume that that's – certain things haven't been met yet. As far as to what was discussed in
01:32
New York, that can't be discussed. I certainly have not been told what the details are of that
01:38
particular meeting. And if I was, even though you're wonderful, I would not share it with you.
01:43
I'm sorry. All right. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Thank you so much.
